Question

A transfers a piece of land to "B" with the condition that "B" shall not transfer it to anyone else for the next 10 years. What does this transfer amount to?

• A. It amounts to Conditional Transfer of Property.
• B. It amounts to Conditional Limitations on Transfer of Property.
• C. It amounts to Subsequent Transfer of Property.
• D. It amounts to Conditions Precedent in the Transfer of Property.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The condition imposed on ”B” by ”A” restricting the transfer of the land for 100 years is a condition in restraint of transfer. Such conditions are generally considered void as they unreasonably restrict the rights of the transferee (B) to deal with their own property. Therefore, the correct answer is (B) It amounts to Conditional Limitations on Transfer of Property.
